Vaginal stones may form in the setting of mesh exposure with urinary incontinence. This report serves to help understand the presentation, evaluation, and management of vaginal urinary stones. <jats:italic>Case<\/jats:italic>. A 68\u2010year\u2010old female presented with a vaginal calculus. She had a history of anterior and posterior polypropylene mesh placement for prolapse 7 years earlier and urinary incontinence. The stone was identified on a portion of exposed mesh and removed in office. Pathology confirmed urinary etiology. The exposed mesh resolved with topical estrogen. Cystourethroscopy excluded urinary fistula and bladder mesh erosion. <jats:italic>Conclusions<\/jats:italic>. When identified, a vaginal calculus should be removed and evaluated for composition. Cystourethroscopy should be performed to assess potential urinary tract fistulas and mesh erosion. Additional imaging should be considered.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2017\/8710315","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,8,22]],"date-time":"2017-08-22T17:01:55Z","timestamp":1503421315000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Vaginal Urinary Calculi Formation Secondary to Vaginal Mesh Exposure with Urinary Incontinence"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2017","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1691-4977","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kara M.","family":"Griffiths","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Geoffrey D.","family":"Towers","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3336-9296","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jerome L.","family":"Yaklic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,8,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_1_2","first-page":"85","article-title":"Vaginal calculi associated with vesicovaginal fistula","volume":"15","author":"Barbagali G.","year":"1985","journal-title":"Ital J Surg Sci"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0022-5347(05)67478-2"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_2","unstructured":"Food and Drug Administration Urogynecologic Surgical Mesh: Update on the Safety and Effectiveness of Transvaginal Placement for Pelvic Organ Prolapse 2001 1\u201315."},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_2","unstructured":"Food and Drug Administration FDA strengthens requirements for surgical mesh for the transvaginal repair of pelvic organ prolapse to address safety risks 2016 http:\/\/www.fda.gov\/NewsEvents\/Newsroom\/PressAnnouncements\/ucm479732.htm."},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/SPV.0000000000000231"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Committee Opinion No. 513 118 Proceedings of the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists 2011 1459\u20131464.","DOI":"10.1097\/AOG.0b013e31823ed1d9"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0022-5347(17)56126-1"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00240-007-0129-x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/LGT.0b013e31824d6f9c"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5005\/jp-journals-10006-1031"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/014107680109401009"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_12_2","first-page":"157","article-title":"A secondary vaginal stone. a case report","volume":"55","author":"Van Oorschot F.
